Introduction
Some people(including me) have experienced trouble completing the mission "Checkpoint Charlie". I will provide some great tips in order to complete this mission easily.

In order to unlock this mission you have to buy the Boatyard Property for $10000. Then enter a boat to start it.
Tip #1: Use the Squado
My first tip to you will probably be the most important: Use the Squado instead of the Cuban Jetmax. The Squado is much faster than the Jetmax & its speed makes it easier to complete this mission.

Tip #2: Dont Go Around the Homes
This seems like something that a picture could explain a lot better than me:

Do This:

DO NOT DO THIS:
Tip #3: Do the Mission During the Day
This mission is unique in the fact that it changes with the type of day. If you do the mission during the day, the timer will be 2:30 minutes. That is the most time you can get.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the completion of this mission is highly reccommended, it is a very easy asset to pass. After this missions completion, $2000 will spawn daily at the Boatyard. Make sure to pick up your hard earned cash often.

Thanks for Reading!

Good tip: remove your frame limit adjuster and play this mission with 30 fps. I did it and completed it at the 1st try with 30 fps. :Emily3_Like:

Sorry to say, but I really dont know how to help you with it. Try the forums, otherwise cheat or something to get past the level.

I can complete the mission on the ps2 and xbox port , but for some reason on pc i cant reach max speed its the same with reversing, ex.) when i drive the cheetah and i try to reverse, it barely moves at all this happens with some other cars like the buffulo and infernus, then for any boat i drive it dosent reach max speeds so it makes it nearly impossible to make the jump where the second checkpoint is located, ive tried silent patching the game, that didnt seem to work and i tried looking up on the internet and i found nothing. so thats my problem and i know it isnt relavant to the guide but it will be helpful once i reach that point

There is not much to know about that mission, just keep trying. Usually takes me 2 or 3 tries.
